What to do with a wedding dress
Question for all you crafty people:
I'm looking for things to do with my wedding dress. I've read pillows, photo album covers, purses, christening dresses, and quilts. I can't see selling it and I'm not sentimental enough to need to keep it all together but I would like to keep it in some more practical form. (I also think I can only convince to move it once, next time I think he'll hide it on me.) Looking for any suggestions you have - there's a lot of dress to use!
I have 2 sewing machines at my disposal to use now (although I hardly remember how to use them) so all ideas are welcome!
Thanks!

I'm sentimental so I kept mine - I remmeber playing dressup in my mom's growing up and wanted the same for my girls.
I would say pick something that won't go out of style - a big poofy wedding album might not be your thing in a few years. I would think something like a dress for a doll - then your kids could still see it. Other votes would be pillows.
Suggestions:
you can keep it to line a basenette later when you start to have children, my girlfriend did that and it was a lovely way to use it.....
Christening dress is also a lovely use for it later in life and a nice way to tie your own memory to that of your childs and a way to signify a special day.
I kept mine, 10 years later and this HUGE box in my closet
Sell it and get $
